Sürekli olarak önleyici bakım ve diğer sağlık bakım faaliyetlerinin gerçekleştirilmesiyle olumlu etkiler elde edilebilmesine rağmen, aynı faaliyetleri günlük olarak gerçekleştirmek zihinsel olarak zorlayıcı olabilir. Bu nedenle, kullanıcıların gönüllü faaliyetlerde bulunabilecekleri oyunlar dahil edilerek, kullanıcıların motivasyonunun sürdürülmesi ve egzersiz sistemlerini kullanmaya teşvik edilmesi konusunda araştırmalar yapılmıştır. Microsoft tarafından geliştirilen Kinect sistemi, bir kişinin duruşunu ve eklemlerinin üç boyutlu koordinatlarını tanıyabilmektedir ve rehabilitasyon amacıyla el ve ayak hareketlerini ölçmek için Kinect kullanan sistemler üzerine araştırıma ve geliştirme faaliyetleri gerçekleştirilmiştir. Kinect, gerçek dünyadaki insan duruşlarını algılayabildiğinden, antagonistik egzersizlerin tanınması için de kullanılabilir. Yakın zamanda, çeşitli Kinect tabanlı ticari rehabilitasyon sistemleri geliştirilmiştir. Daha önce, derinlik görüntü sensörü kullanan ve performansı ve kullanılabilirliği değerlendiren bir alt ekstremite egzersiz destek sistemi tasarladık ve geliştirdik. Sistem, Kinect sensöründen elde edilen iskelet ve RGB verileri için 3D konum verileri ve eklem açılarına dayanarak egzersizleri tanır ve değerlendirir. Bu çalışmada, derinlik sensörü kullanarak antagonistik egzersizi destekleyen bir sistem tasarladık, uyguladık ve değerlendirdik. Sistem, derinlik sensöründen elde edilen kullanıcının eklemleriyle ilgili iskelet verilerini kullanarak egzersizleri tanır ve gerçek zamanlı geri bildirim sağlamak için kullanıcının egzersizlerini değerlendirir. Ek olarak, egzersiz prosedürlerini kullanıcıya açıklamak için görsel-işitsel bir ekran kullanır ve egzersizi teşvik etmek için gerçek zamanlı videolarını oynatır. Ayrıca, kullanıcının müzikle aynı tempoda egzersiz yapabileceği bir ritim oyunu işlevine de sahiptir. Bu sistem dört tip egzersiz içerir: üst/alt ekstremite antagonistik hareketi, üst ekstremite sol/sağ antagonistik hareketi, her iki kolu ve her iki bacağın kullanıldığı taş/kağıt/makas egzersizi ve ikili/üçlü zaman egzersizleri.

recognize antagonistic exercises. Recently, several Kinect-based commercial
rehabilitation systems have been developed. Formerly, we designed and developed
a prototype lower-limb chair exercise support system using a depth image sensor
and evaluated the performance and usability. The system recognizes and
evaluates exercises based on 3D position data and joint angles for skeleton and
RGB data obtained from the Kinect sensor. In this study, we designed, implemented and evaluated a system
that supports antagonistic exercise using a depth sensor. It The system
recognizes exercises by using skeleton data about the user’s joints acquired
from a depth sensor, and evaluates the user’s exercises to provide real-time
feedback. This system uses an audiovisual display to explain the exercise
procedures to the user, and displays user’splays
their6 real time video to encourage the user to perform the
exercises. It also has a rhythm game function whereby the user can exercise in
time with music. This system incudes is provided with four types of exercise:
upper/lower limb antagonistic movement, upper limb left/right antagonistic
movement, rock/paper/scissors using both arms and both legs, and duple/triple
time exercises.
